Google Chrome

I no longer use any other browser. Chrome has seemed to be everything I have ever wanted with a browser. I can use Incognito Window to browse the internet without a single trace of where I have been in my history or anything. Haha I'm sure a lot of people can find that tool useful. Also, the browser does not have a huge toolbar at the top, rather everything is organized by tabs. It is great. I recommend throwing Internet Explorer into the trash and upgrading to this fantastic browser.

Gmail

Please tell me you are not still using hotmail or yahoo. Step it up. Gmail is the greatest email program ever. It allows me to send a lot bigger files than before when I was using other tools for emailing. Also, googledocs that is available with gmail is life saving. I can share documents with anyone! Get with it people and upgrade to gmail.

iTunes

Do I need to even explain? It organized my music and allows me to transfer it to my iPod with ease.

Microsoft Word

Being a college student this program is essential. If I did not have word I would be handwriting 10 pagers. I would also be trying to keep up with impossibly fast lecturing teachers that surround the classrooms- I can type 100x faster than I can write. Word is definitely needed.

Google Maps/Navigation

I recently just got my first smart phone and so far a very essential tool used a lot on this phone by me is the Google Maps/Navigation. No matter where I am or where I need to be this app makes it happen. It has saved me endless amounts of time being lost and I greatly appreciate it! Thanks Google Maps/Navigation. I, truly, do not know where I would be without you.

Google Translate

Have you ever been in another country or even in a different part of LA where you needed to buy something or find out information but the only people around spoke a different language? Well, google translate cures this problem. Just type in what you want to say in google translate and it will translate it into any language. Trust me this app is worth it! It even has a tool where it translates the words out loud.

7

Trapster

Trapster tells you where all the cops are. It tells you if there is a check point or if there has been a cop hiding in any certain place close to your location. The only downside to this app is that people have to report the police being there. If they do not tell trapster that there is a cop then there is no warning for you. It relies on people's participation. But, definitely worth checking out and participating with. No one wants a ticket!

Facebook App

Sadly I really don't think I could live without this app. It gives me the ability to untag stupid pictures I am in immediately. It, also, allows me to get back to that post someone put on my wall instantly. Facebook has taken over my life. Save me.

ESPN News App

All the sports scores and events are in my hands. I am able to check anything sports related in seconds with my ESPN News App. I, highly, recommend it if you are a sports fanatic or even just interested in seeing the Dodgers or Lakers score for that night.

Pandora

Pandora allows me to play music all day at work. It, also, allows me to find new artists that are similar to artists that I already enjoy. If you have not heard of pandora, check it out immediately.

Adobe Photoshop

We definitely cannot live without Photoshop. I mean how else would all the celebrities look so perfect in every magazine? How would Ads be made? How would websites be designed? Do I need to say more? I didn't think so.

Droid Light

You can never even guess how many times this app has been useful to me! Stumbling into my apartment at 3 in the morning trying to find that light switch has become much easier with the Droid Light. Unfortunately, the droid light is only available for droids. I'm sure there is something similar to it with the iPhone.

Truth or Dare App

I mean this is definitely an app we may possibly be able to live without. But, the app is awesome it gets the party started. Have you ever been at a house a little intoxicated and everyone seems to be getting bored. Everyone seems to be over it and ready to pass out or go home. Well, with the truth or dare app you can spice things up real quick. The app is quite simple. Add everyones name into the phone and choose Truth or Dare. It even has a "Make It Dirty" selection if you want things to be even more fun. Try it out! I don't know if it's available for the iPhone, but the Droid definitely has it.
